Intro: B  F#  E  B 

verse 1: (Same chords as intro) 

Why I wanna be a hurricane 
When I'm barely a breeze 
Cuz I've already seen Your storm 
Bring me down to my knees 
Just when we think we may be high enough 
You knock us back to the ground 
We are trying to move up fast 
Can't see the contrast 
Of how the King came down 

Pre-Chorus 

       C#m7 
'cause I can't build my towers higher 
D#m7                       Emaj7    *Emaj7/F# 
And live inside Your fire, no no no 

Chorus: 

Emaj7 
Whenever I climb too high 
        B 
Keep my feet on the ground 
               Emaj7              D#m7   G#m7 
And when I get full of me turn me upside down 
         F#m7               B 
You know pride and not just summer 
     Emaj7      G#m7 
Come before the fall 
           C#m7 
So if it's You that's getting bigger 
                (Verse Chords) 
I don't mind... being small 

Being small 

verse 2: (Same as verse 1) 

Maybe if I shout real loud 
Maybe then I'll draw a crowd 
And they'll finally cheer 
Or maybe I should tone down 
Never make a sound now 
Anything to draw them near 
Or maybe there's more to life 
Than trying to make a name 
Even though they say it ain't so 
So maybe I should step on down 
Hand off the kings crown 
To the God on the throne 

Pre-Chorus 

       C#m7 
'cause I can't build my towers higher 
D#m7                       Emaj7    *Emaj7/F# 
And live inside Your fire, no no no 


Chorus: 

Emaj7 
Whenever I climb too high 
        B 
Keep my feet on the ground 
               Emaj7              D#m7   G#m7 
And when I get full of me turn me upside down 
         F#m7               B 
You know pride and not just summer 
     Emaj7      G#m7 
Come before the fall 
           C#m7 
So if it's You that's getting bigger 
                 
I don't mind being small 

Bridge: 
Em7        
These people won't miss me 
        B 
I'll be out of their memories 
    D#m7                      G#m7 
The ground will forget me for sure 
     C#m7  
Only one is remembered 
    C# 
One name to be treasured 
   D# 
Is Yours 

(Laid back Chorus, fingerpicking?) 

              Emaj7 
So now when I climb too high 
  
Keep my feet on the ground 
B 
And if I get full of me turn me upside down 
         D#m7           
You know pride and not just summer 
                G#m7 
Come before the fall 

Ooo 
         Emaj7 
So maybe hopefully I see less of me 
    B 
And more of you and its true 

I'll be finally free 
D#m7                     G#m7 
That's what I want after all 

Yeah 

Chorus: 

Emaj7 
Whenever I climb too high 
        B 
Keep my feet on the ground 
               Emaj7              D#m7   G#m7 
And when I get full of me turn me upside down 
         F#m7               B 
You know pride and not just summer 
     Emaj7      G#m7 
Come before the fall 
           C#m7 
So if it's You that's getting bigger 
                 
I don't mind.. 

      Emaj7     B 
Being small 
      D#m7         G#m7 
Being small, oh oh oh 
      Emaj7     B 
Being small 
      D#m7         G#m7 
Being small, oh oh oh 
B7    Emaj7 
Whoa, Yeah  

Repeat to fade!
